Antonio Tarver says he is interested in going to Russia to fight Denis Lebedev (source: todays boxingcene article).

If this fight happens, who would win?

(note: the Russian media, after Lebedev-Jones, reported with medical evidence that Denis had fought with a broken rib, so he wasn't at his best)

What's with his ribs?

It was also reported that he broke his rib in the 4th round vs Huck.

I thought that was Huck?

OT: I'd pick Lebedev in the fight, but root for Tarver.

Tarver by late TKO or decision.

Not only did he whoop Jones, he can still whoop most of the guys that whooped Jones.

Tarver > Jones

He said that Lebedev fought RJJ with a broken rib, not Huck.

Your right.

Marco Huck: Lebedev Cracked My Ribs in The Fourth

http://www.boxingscene.com/marco-huck-lebedev-cracked-my-ribs-fourth--34003

At Max Schmeling Halle in Berlin, Germany, WBO cruiserweight champion Marco Huck (31-1, 23 KOs) won a twelve round split decision over previously unbeaten Denis Lebedev (21-1, 16 KOs). The scores were 115-113, 115-113 for Huck, 116-112 for Lebedev. The fight was very close. There were many who agree that Lebedev had done enough to win.

I got confused.

Lebedev broke Huck's rib in the 4th and lebedev fought Jones with a broken rib.

Got it.

I think ppl forget the Lebedev vs Jones Jr. fight that Jones Jr. was actually competitive at times with Lebedev until being KO'd.

Lebedev was carrying Jones until he got annoyed and started punching like he meant it.

The second he did that, Jones was KTFO.
